Hogwarts starts with stealing power.

Draco briefly recounted what he had learned from the forbidden book, and at the end, he sighed with regret:
"It's a pity that I haven't found a forbidden book that can enhance myself. To the best of my ability, Weird Pharmacy is the best forbidden book I can find.

In order to maximize utilization, I will choose the second choice that can enhance combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

Lin Xia said calmly: "Strange medicine is also very powerful. Although it cannot directly enhance your combat effectiveness, it can enhance your survivability.

If you go to a deserted place in the future, you can transform the materials of strange pharmacy to make the potion you want.

In addition, if you learn the science of strange medicine to a high level, you can reproduce the long-lost potions, and the power of those potions is better than the current ones."

She said, "If it were me, I would rather choose the strange potion-making method of "Weird Pharmacy" instead of directly enhancing combat power."

Draco looked thoughtful.

Lin Xia said cryptically: "As long as you practice well, you will be able to increase your strength. What you need is a forbidden book that can enhance your magical talent. If you can't find it, you might as well give yourself more means."

Draco pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly as if he understood something.

Lin Xia was just about to leave when suddenly an idea flashed in her mind. The spark of inspiration that she had never thought of before appeared and she grasped it firmly.

She suddenly turned to look at Draco and asked, "You said that your trickery can be used to refine any material, so are the finished products limited to potions?"

Draco was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted.

"You mean, Weird Medicine can not only be used to make special potions, but also to make special alchemical items, or even strange items?!"

Lin Xia nodded: "I'm not sure if it's possible, but I think you have a connection with this inheritance, and maybe one day you will be able to reach this level in the future.

I just happened to have an idea and would like to provide you with a batch of binding wands. I wonder if you can incorporate the characteristics of the glow candles into them to make them into wands that have both binding and glowing abilities.

The magic cast by this wand not only has a bonus to binding magic, but also has a special damage bonus to the fallen, whose bodies hate brilliant magic very much."

Draco hesitated and said, "Even if I read the book on pharmacy again and learned a lot of useful knowledge, it is still limited to making potions. It may not be able to be combined with the Radiant Candle to make a special wonder.

Moreover, when my strange medicine is activated, it also depends on the time. I can only slightly influence the time, which does not mean I can decide when to start refining at any time.

Another point is that although I can specify a replacement material... I feel that even if I happen to shake out the material that suits your idea, what I ultimately make is still a potion."

Lin Xia thought for a moment and said, "Then let's start with the simplest thing. Try to see if you can integrate the glow candle into the production of strange medicine and extract that trace of glow attribute from it.

If wizards can also bring in the attribute of light when wielding magic, it will be much easier to fight against the evil world."

Draco perked up.

I originally thought that I had chosen a useless, unpopular but very special knowledge, but after Lin Xia's guidance.

Maybe he could really make a special potion, such as the "Glorious Potion"!
There are two ways to make potions in the art of medicine.

One is to already know the formula, and trigger the method of making strange medicine by thinking about it day and night, and use a special formula to make it at a special time point. There is a high probability that the formula can be restored.

The other is to not know the formula, but to use your own inspiration to randomly combine it to create a new potion.

This method was also one of Draco's gains this time.

However, with this kind of free and casual combination, the probability of failure is greater.

But once it can be made, according to Draco's understanding of this method, it seems that not only he can make it, but he can also spread the formula so that others can make it using the same method.

However, the success rate of others who use the techniques of weird pharmacy to make weird pharmacy potions is not as high as that of him, the legitimate heir. The probability may be only half, or only 30%.

But even so, it is still a miracle of some magnitude.

Because strange medicine is difficult to spread and is very mysterious, even he, the heir, has to rely on a lot of luck to make it successfully.

For ordinary wizards, it is even more difficult to figure out the rules of change, which is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Therefore, it is a very amazing thing that the formula of strange medicine can be spread so that ordinary wizards can have a certain chance to make it.

Draco expressed his thoughts and said, "I don't know if it is possible to make a strange object through the method of strange medicine. This is beyond my imagination.

However, I think there is a certain chance that I can succeed in refining the Brilliance Potion that has never appeared in the magic world through the free combination method. After I finish this test, I will focus on doing experiments. "

Lin Xia smiled and said, "I'll be waiting for your good news. If you can make it successfully, this will be your first personal invention."

Draco couldn't help but smile happily when he heard this.

“I didn’t think I had a talent for research before, and I could only help you. I never thought that one day I would have my own invention.

Although this is an unusual method, if I didn’t have the science of strange medicine, I would never have thought of making potions.”

Lin Xia shook her head and said calmly, "Draco, the School of Weird Pharmacy chose you as the successor. This is your capital. Even if you use the methods of Weird Pharmacy as inspiration, it is yours and others cannot criticize you."

She moved her ears slightly and heard some noise outside, which seemed very lively.

Lin Xia said quickly: "Someone is coming, I'll go out and take a look."

She walked out of the common room and found that it was Ron and Harry, who were asking Professor McGonagall questions.

Lin Xia came closer and asked questions about Transfiguration.

She was a little confused: I had never heard of Harry and Ron becoming interested in Transfiguration.

When Harry saw Lin Xia, his expression changed slightly and he immediately lowered his head.

Ron greeted Lin Xia in surprise, paused his conversation with McGonagall, and said, "I just went to look for you, but couldn't find you in the laboratory or the Hufflepuff common room. It turns out you've come to Professor McGonagall's place."

Lin Xia nodded to Professor McGonagall: "Professor, I have already talked to Draco."

Then he answered Ron's question: "I came here to visit Draco. He came back from reading a banned book yesterday. He has to stay in the office for the next two days to check if he has been contaminated. I was worried that he would be bored, so I brought him some books."

Lin Xia asked back: "What about you guys? Are you all here to ask Professor McGonagall questions?"

Ron pushed Harry out without thinking: "It's not me who is looking for it, it's Harry who is looking for it. He said he has several problems with Transfiguration."

After finishing speaking, Ron looked at Harry and thought belatedly:

It was Harry who came to ask questions, but after arriving, he was the one chatting with Professor McGonagall, while Harry seemed a little silent.

"Harry, you're going to ask the professor a question, what do you want to ask?"

Harry:…

He just wanted to come here to retrieve the snails and take a look at the scenes recorded inside, but he didn't expect to meet Lin Xia.

If only Ron was there, he could just say something to get away with it, but Lin Xia was not that easy to fool.

Harry thought quickly and said, "Animagus! I want to ask the professor a question about Animagus!

Didn't the professor tell us that we can consciously activate the prerequisites for Animagus? I've been trying recently, but I can't get into the state. I want to ask the professor if there is any way to concentrate. "Ron muttered: "Why didn't I know you practiced Animagus, Harry, why are you also secretly rolling like Hermione..."

McGonagall, Lin Xia and Harry pretended not to hear Ron's complaints.

The question has been asked, so it is no longer important to trace the source of the problem; what is important is to solve the problem.

Professor McGonagall said calmly: "It is difficult for every wizard to concentrate. It is difficult for wizards with impetuous personalities and superficial work to achieve anything.

Little wizards are lively and active by nature. It is unrealistic to restrict you from doing things, and you don’t have the patience to sit down and study. My suggestion is -"

She turned her head to look at Lin Xia, and then continued, "You might as well take the cold pills invented by Lin Xia. The auxiliary function of the cold pills is to help people enter a more focused state and be able to think deeply."

Lin Xia continued: “Professor, although Leng Wan can do these things, it is usually used against polluters, so the efficacy is enhanced.

If a normal wizard uses cold pills for some auxiliary effects, I am very worried that it will become addictive. "

She had not considered this issue before.

The cold pills were developed and are very effective against primary polluters, but they are also effective against ordinary normal wizards.

Just for the effect of refreshing the mind and clearing the eyes, I'm afraid many normal wizards would try to buy it and then practice it.

If wizards discover the benefits of cold pills in assisting cultivation, they will not stop buying them.

The fear is that if it is used too much, drug resistance will occur, causing the cold pills to lose their most important effect.

If a wizard who uses cold pills to assist in his practice is accidentally infected with the evil god's whispers, it is clearly only the primary stage of infection. However, because he has taken too many cold pills before and has developed drug resistance, the cold pills will not have any effect on the wizard's clearance, which is not worth the loss.

After listening to Lin Xia's explanation, Professor McGonagall also became serious.

“I have heard that some wizards use cold pills to assist in their practice and cast spells, but I forgot about the issue of addiction.

Wait here, I will report the problem first, and we need to start limiting the amount of cold pills each person can buy."

Professor McGonagall left in a flash, leaving Ron, Harry and Lin Xia standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Lin Xia looked at Harry and was about to speak when Harry suddenly turned around and said:

"I suddenly remembered something. During today's break, I still have to go to the Quidditch field for training.

It’s getting late, I have to hurry over, or the captain will scold me again.”

Looking at Harry's back as he left, Lin Xia looked at Ron, who looked confused, and said thoughtfully, "Do you feel that something is wrong with Harry?"

Ron nodded: "He has been in a bad mood these past few days and often stares at Banban in a daze.

If Harry didn't know he couldn't beat Scabbers, I think he would have wanted to capture Scabbers and make him tell him everything about Sirius."

Lin Xia frowned slightly: "It's not a question of whether we can beat him or not, but once Mouse Banban knows that we have discovered his true identity, he will probably never appear in front of us again.

I've looked up his information. He and Sirius lived from the same period. Just think about it, when you were very young, Scabbers came to your house and lived in hiding for more than 10 years.

Do you think he simply doesn't want to become human?
He must be carrying a secret that we don't know about. If we want to uncover this secret, we must not alert the enemy."

Ron: "I had the same idea as you, and I told Harry about it. Harry said he wouldn't catch it, but I didn't quite believe him.

He stared at the mouse Banban without blinking, and then said this. No one would believe that he would not catch it. "

An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he took Lin Xia's hand and said, "Why don't we lock Banban up somewhere?"

Lin Xia thought about it and decided that this was a good idea. She would release it when she needed it.

"I can provide a special jade box that can hold the mouse Banban. There are forbidden magic runes specially drawn on the jade box. Banban cannot absorb power from the inside, nor can he break through the magic runes to get out."

Ron talked to her as they walked. Professor McGonagall had left and he had no more questions to ask.

Ron asked, "Can runes really do this? Why do they feel more powerful than the portkeys in the wizarding world?"

Lin Xia shook her head: "The power used by the two is from different sources, so they cannot be compared.

It is written in "A History of Hogwarts" that the ancient magic script originated from nature. It is a magical text formed by symbols on the bodies of magical creatures, symbols of mountains and rivers, symbols of natural wonders... It is different from the power currently used by the wizarding world. "

Ron muttered, "It's not the same, but even the crappiest ancient runes are better than ordinary spells."

Lin Xia did not refute this point, as it was true, but the ancient magic text was eliminated because it was too complicated.

It's a waste to use such complicated magic when you only need to do a small thing.

Ron followed her footsteps and soon went down to the second floor, thinking she was going to the laboratory.

Passing by the laboratory, Ron looked around several times and seemed to be hesitant to speak to Lin Xia.

"Lin Xia, where are you taking me? Why don't we do the experiment?"

He has been quite fond of staying in the laboratory recently. He thinks the atmosphere there is very good and no one will notice him even if he sits in the hall and slacks off.

Because everyone is working in a dedicated laboratory.

Lin Xia said calmly: "I took you to experience the knowledge challenge game. Didn't you say it was fun? The professors asked me to take you there.

I mentioned to you before that I had opened the relevant permissions for you and you could enter and exit that space freely, but you didn't go there later, and the professors asked me why you didn't go there. "

Lin Xia looked at him: "Ron, why don't you go?"

Ron said sheepishly, “The game is fun, and I like playing it, but there are too many professors there.

After returning to the dormitory and getting over the excitement, I was a little afraid to face the professor alone, so I never went. "

Lin Xia smiled lightly: "Professors are not terrible beasts. Except for Snape, other professors are very friendly to young wizards.

Forget it, I will bring you here when I am free in the future. If I am not free, I will let Draco bring you here."

Ron thought of Harry and then Hermione, and asked hesitantly, "Lin Xia, can we ask Hermione to come over? I think it would be helpful for her to experience this little game."

Lin Xia quickly said: "Of course, but the professor's production progress is not fast. The fastest course is only produced up to the third grade.

If Hermione comes here, just to experience the first and second year content like you, will she come?"

Ron said tangledly, "I don't know. I'll ask her sometime."

After playing the level-breaking game, he felt that his understanding of magic had deepened. Even a rookie like him had so many insights, so Hermione should have felt it even more deeply, right?

Wait, what if Hermione doesn't like the content of first and second grades?
Oh, it's so confusing! (End of this chapter)
